Crazy Water, Pickled Lemons


Alright, this isn't a recipe so much as a cookbook recommendation. This is a great book by the British food writer Diana Henry, a sort of encomium to Med/Middle Eastern/North African cooking. Brilliant stuff, gorgeous photography, and rocking recipes. Nancy, the brilliant-but-obsessed artisan baker and owner of The Tree Stone Bakery shared this one with me. Check it out if you can!

Totally. I'd imagine you might be alble to find it used, since it's a couple of years old now. Who knows? The Bookman might have it.

I was sad to see neither the public nor university library had this (in Calgary).

and the cover, it's beautiful! I actually saw it in person when I was at the Farmer's Market last week, the inside looks good too. But alas at $40 I couldn't take it home.

Yeah, that's pretty pricey. I was happy to borrow it!
